EUP3226
3A, Synchronous Step-Down Converter
..
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The EUP3226 is a 1 MHz fixed frequency synchronous,
current-mode, step-down dc-dc converter capable of
providing up to 3A output current. The EUP3226
operates from an input range of 2.7V to 5.5V and
provides a regulated output voltage from 0.6V to 5V.
The internal synchronous power switch improves
efficiency and eliminates the need for an external
Schottky diode. The EUP3226 can be externally set for
either forced PWM continuous mode or pulse skipping
mode. Forced PWM operation provides very low output
ripple voltage for noise sensitive applications while
pulse skipping operation improves light load efficiency
by reducing switching loss.
The EUP3226 features short circuit and thermal
protection circuits to improve system reliability.
Internally soft-start avoids input inrush current during
startup. The EUP3226 is available in TDFN
3mm × 3mm 10-pin package with the exposed pad and
SOP-8 package with the exposed pad.

EUP3226
Application Information
The EUP3226 uses a slope-compensated constant
frequency, current mode architecture. Both the main
(P-Channel MOSFET) and synchronous (N-channel
MOSFET) switches are internal. During normal
operation, the EUP3226 regulates output voltage by
switching at a constant frequency and then modulating
the power transferred to the load each cycle using PWM
comparator. The duty cycle is controlled by three
weighted differential signals: the output of error
amplifier, the main switch sense voltage and the
slope-compensation ramp. It modulates output power by
adjusting the inductor peak-current during the first half
of each cycle. An N-channel, synchronous switch turns
on during the second half of each cycle. When the
inductor current starts to reverse in pulse skipping mode
operation or when the PWM reaches the end of the
oscillator period in forced PWM operation, the
synchronous switch turns off.
Soft-Start
The EUP3226 has an internal soft-start circuit to limit
the inrush current and output voltage overshoot during
startup. The soft-start time is about 800µS.
Short-Circuit Protection
Output Overvoltage Protection
The output voltage is monitored by a comparator
through FB pin. It guards against transient overshoots
>10% by turning the main switch off .
Input Undervoltage Lockout
The undervoltage lockout circuit prevents device
misoperation at low input voltages. It prevents the
converter from turning on the main and synchronous
switches under undervoltage state.
Thermal Protection and Lockout
The internal thermal protection and lockout circuit
prevents device in the event that the maximum junction
tempetaure is exceeded. If the device temperature is
higher than 160°C (typical), it will be shut down. Only if
the power is reprovided or the EN pin is reactived can
the device rework.
Inductor Selection
The EUP3226 typically uses a 2.2µH output inductor.
The output inductor is selected to limit the ripple current
to some predetermined value, typically 20%~40% of the
full load current at the maximum input voltage. Large
value inductors lower ripple currents. Higher VIN or
VOUT influence the ripple current as shown in equation.

The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least
equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple
current to prevent core saturation.
The DC-resistance of the inductor directly influences the
efficiency of the converter. Therefore for better
efficiency, choose a low DC-resistance inductor.
CIN and COUT Selection
In continuous mode, the source current of the top
MOSFET is a square wave of duty cycle VOUT/VIN. The
primary function of the input capacitor is to provide a
low impedance loop for the edges of pulsed current
drawn by the EUP3226. A low ESR input capacitor sized
for the maximum RMS current must be used. The size
required will vary depending on the load, output voltage
and input voltage source impedance characteristics. A
typical value is around 22µF.
The input capacitor RMS current varies with the input
voltage and the output voltage. The equation for the
maximum RMS current in the input capacitor is:
I
As soon as the output voltage drops below 50% of the
nominal output voltage, the converter switching
frequency and the current limit are reduced.

The output capacitor COUT has a strong effect on loop
stability.
The selection of COUT is driven by the required effective
series resistance (ESR).
ESR is a direct function of the volume of the capacitor;
that is, physically larger capacitors have lower ESR.
Once the ESR requirement for COUT has been met, the
RMS current rating generally far exceeds the IRIPPLE(P-P)
requirement. The output ripple ∆VOUT is determined by:
∆VOUT ≅ ∆I L ESR +
8fC

When choosing the input and output ceramic capacitors,
choose the X5R or X7R dielectric formulations. These
dielectrics have the best temperature and voltage
characteristics of all the ceramics for a given value and
size.
Output Voltage Programming
The output voltage is set by a resistive divider according
to the following formula, where RFB1 value is kept
150KΩ:
0.6
R FB2 = R FB1

0.6
OUT
EUP3226
The external resistive divider is connected to the output,
allowing remote voltage sensing as shown below.
Thermal Considerations
To avoid the EUP3226 from exceeding the maximum
junction temperature, the user will need to do a thermal
analysis. The goal of the thermal analysis is to determine
whether the operating conditions exceed the maximum
junction temperature of the part. The temperature rise is
given by:
TR=(PD)(θJA)
Where PD=ILOAD2 × RDS(ON) is the power dissipated by
the regulator ; θJA is the thermal resistance from the
junction of the die to the ambient temperature.
The junction temperature, TJ, is given by:
TJ=TA+TR
Where TA is the ambient temperature.
TJ should be below the maximum junction temperature
of 150°C.
PC Board Layout Checklist
For all switching power supplies, the layout is an
important step in the design especially at high peak
currents and switching frequencies. If the layout is not
carefully done, the regulator might show stability
problems as well as EMI problems.
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
guidelines should be used to ensure proper operation of
the EUP3226.
1. The input capacitor CIN should connect to PVIN as
closely as possible. This capacitor provides the AC
current to the internal power MOSFETs.
2. The power traces, consisting of the GND trace, the
LX trace and the VIN trace should be kept short,
direct and wide.
3. The FB pin should connect directly to the feedback
resistors. The resistive divider RFB1/RFB2 must be
connected between the COUT and ground.
4. Keep the switching node, LX, away from the
sensitive FB node.
